wolf 6.5 grendel poly-performance. Anyone seen it?

[mrming]

Wolf supposedly has been making 6.5 grendel in their poly-performance line.

Link!

Anyone actually laid eyes on the stuff or have a price? I'm seeing forum postings rolling back to '08 about the stuff but none of the usual suspects seem to have it available. I can find gold, but not the gray-coated steel case. Is it vapor?

Am trying to sort myself out on either another AR upper build, or go finish a FAL kit. If ammo is going to be 308 price, I might as well shoot 308..

They are working on it but it isn't going to be available to the public until after the election craze. Wolf can't justify changing tooling over to another caliber when they can sell all the 7.62x39 that they can make. That said, they are supposed to come out at about the same price as their 7.62x39.

Coming soon to a store near you...vapor bullets!

Sweet! Glad the stuff isn't vaporware.

If they make 6.5 grendel for the same price as 7.62x39 than I may just have to build one of those little race horses.

Ill have to persuade someone to make vz.58 in this calliber.

That was the original plan, to have a cheap 6.5G round. Now it appears these well run about .30 a round, or what 5.56 NATO surplus cost.

The last release date I read about was late summer 2012.....
